Changes
Mountain Ridge, Whistler, 30x30, acrylic
I gave this one a hard look because I was taking it to the Rendezvous gallery last week. I decided it needed a bit of a rework. I posted it before but I felt that I needed to redesign the area around the central trees. I took some of them out and tried to open it up a bit so that the eye could move around more easily. There is always so much to consider in creating a painting. I must take the time to lay a good foundation and do those value sketches, I am always in such a hurry to start a new piece and then I end up going back to fix things. Wouldn't it be nice if each piece just flowed off the brush with no need for revisions.

Wow, what wonderful work you do! I randomly found your blog following Kim's. Love the subject matter and how you interpet the images. I'm a sucker for your trees.

ReplyDeleteGreat looking painting. I like the trees but also love the shadows on the snow and mountains. Have missed your postings.
